ISBN10: 1598537229, ISBN13: 9781598537222, [publisher: The Library of America, New York] Hardcover Hardcover. Edited by Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer David W. Blight, this Library of America edition is the largest single-volume selection of Frederick Douglass's writings ever published, presenting the full texts of thirty-four speeches and sixty-seven pieces of journalism. (A companion Library of America volume, Frederick Douglass- Autobiographies, gathers his three memoirs.) With startling immediacy, these writings chart the evolution of Douglass's thinking about slavery and the U.S. Constitution; his eventual break with William Lloyd Garrison and many other abolitionists on the crucial issue of disunion; the course of his complicated relationship with Abraham Lincoln; and his deep engagement with the cause of women's suffrage.Here are such powerful works as "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?," Douglass's incandescent jeremiad skewering the hypocrisy of the slaveholding republic; "The Claims of the Negro Ethnologically Considered," a full-throated refutation of nineteenthcentury racial pseudoscience; "Is it Right and Wise to Kill a Kidnapper?," an urgent call for forceful opposition to the Fugitive Slave Act; "How to End the War," in which Douglass advocates, just days after the fall of Fort Sumter, for the raising of Black troops and the military destruction of slavery; "There Was a Right ...

While toiling as an enslaved laborer in the Baltimore shipyards he bought a secondhand copy of The Columbian Orator, a 'noble acquisition' that he carried with him on his escape to the North. Douglass began his career as an antislavery lecturer in 1841 and founded his first newspaper, North Star, six years later.For the next five decades he used his voice and wielded his pen in the cause of emancipation, equal rights, and human dignity. Inspired by the Hebrew prophets, Douglass developed a unique oratorical and literary style that combined scriptural cadences with savage irony, moral urgency, and keen insight. In his incandescent jeremiad 'What to the Slave is the 4th of July ' Douglass skewered the hypocrisy of the slaveholding republic; and in 'The Claims of the Negro Ethnologically Considered' he refuted white supremacist ideology. 'Resistance to Blood-Houndism' called for forceful opposition to the Fugitive Slave Act; 'Capt. John Brown Not Insane' praised the 'self-forgetful heroism' of the abolitionist martyr; and 'How to End the War,' published in 1861, called for the raising of Black ...
